Accommodation and facilities:
Hotel setting was fantastic, we stayed in one of the Seaview Villas, the rooms were great except for the reptile droppings in the bathroom and kitchen. Whenever any room was used it had to be swept to remove the dropping. Due to low season only certain areas of the hotel was in use. I bit disappointing but the stay overall was good. Drinks prices were over the top

Accommodation and facilities:
The Callery cut have been better.
The returant cut also have a lillte more on the menu.
But the Pool was very very nice.

Accommodation and facilities:
Very nice hotel. The rooms are very nice and spacious, with the outside part and outdoor shower. Clean and well kept. I didn´t miss a thing.
The poolarea are fantastic. The beach just beside the pool are nice but rocky. Just a few places you can walk out and bath. We never swom in the sea during our stay.
The only negative about the resort is the restaurang. There´s no wrong with the food, but it takes very long. One lunch we waited one hour for our food and we were all alone. We learned to order lunch to the poolbar so that you can lay in your sunchair waiting. Then it´s great. In the evening the have, besides the a la carte menu, different buffes every night which were over expectation. Breakfast was good.
And the spa, excellent experience but almost twice the price as in the other hotels we stayed during our Thailand trip. But then it was more exclusive than the other. Still worth the money. For example 1 hour back & neck massage 700 bath + VAT.
The hotel is pricy when comparing to the mainland. The food and beverage prices are almost twice as expensive. But there is still way cheaper than home.
Note that all prices at the hotel (bar, food, spa) are exclusive of VAT. They add about 18% to your final bill.
The hotel staff are friendly, but not as helpful and kind as in many other hotels in Thailand.
Over all the hotel is very nice, I wouldn´t go there again but I would recommend it to others.

Reservation service:
Excellent as usual!
